More than 40,000 people have donated money to an online appeal created by a far-right media commentator at Gofundme.com.

Mothers and teachers have formed vigilante groups to protect French cities from rioters.

On Monday, French mayors called on the public and elected officials to hold rallies at city halls to counter protests in which rioters looted shops, set cars on fire and attacked public buildings.

The country's association of mayors said in a statement that republican symbols have been the target of «extreme violence» throughout France, calling for a «mobilization of the citizens» to return to order.

Large crowds of people have gathered since noon at the town hall in Chambéry , Cannes, Rennes and the Parisian suburb of L'Ay-le-Rose, where rioters crashed into the mayor's house and set it on fire on Saturday night.

In some areas, groups have already taken matters into their own hands, trying to put an end to the unrest, and tens of thousands of police and gendarmes are already sent every night to cities across the country.
